Tatsuoka Castle Ruins
"This ruined castle, one of only two Western-style star forts in Japan, was also known as ""Bellflower Castle"" due to the resemblance of its shape to a Chinese bellflower. Today, it is a nationally-designated Historic Site. The fortress was demolished in 1872 after Tatsuoka Domain was abolished. The castle's moat, earthen walls, and kitchen building still stand, and the grounds are used as-is as Taguchi Elementary School. With an advance reservation, visitors can view the interior."
